[Verse 1]
Am C
In the state of Colorado
E7 Am
In the year of seventy-four
Am
They crossed the San Juan Mountains
G Am
Growing hungry to the core.
Am
Their guide was Alferd Packer
G Am
And they trusted him too long,
Am C
For his character was weak
E7 Am
And his appetite was strong.
[Chorus]
Am G F E
They called him a murderer, a cannibal, a thief,
Am C E7 Am
It just doesn't pay to eat anything but Government-inspected beef.
[Verse 2]
Am C
Along the Gunnison River
E7 Am
An Indian camp they spied.
Am
An Indian chief approached them,
G Am
To stop them he did try.
Am
He warned them of the danger
G Am
In the snow that lay around,
Am C
But the danger was in Packer,
E7 Am
For his hunger knew now bound.
[Chorus]
Am G F E
They called him a murderer, a cannibal, a thief,
Am C E7 Am
It just doesn't pay to eat anything but Government-inspected beef.
[Verse 3]
Am C
Two cold months went slowly by,
E7 Am
Packer came back alone.
Am
"My comrades they all froze to death,
G Am
I'm starving, " he did moan.
Am
The Indian chief knew how he lied,
G Am
He spat upon the ground,
Am C
For his belly hung out all over his belt,
E7 Am
He'd gained some thirty pounds.
[Chorus]
Am G F E
They called him a murderer, a cannibal, a thief,
Am C E7 Am
It just doesn't pay to eat anything but Government-inspected beef.
[Verse 4]
Am C
Well for nine long years he ran away
E7 Am
But finally he was tried.
Am
He claimed he didn't kill them,
G Am
He only ate their hide.
Am
That County had six dem-o-crats
G Am
Until he did arrived.
Am C
Well only one lives on today,
E7 Am
He ate the other five.
[Chorus]
Am G F E
They called him a murderer, a cannibal, a thief,
Am C E7 Am
It just doesn't pay to eat anything but Government-inspected beef.
[Verse 5]
Am C
Eighteen years he stayed in jail,
E7 Am
It was a dreadful fate,
Am
For he suffered indigestion
G Am
Every time he ate.
Am
Still, it's hard to blame this hungry guy
G Am
Who went searchin' for the mines,
Am C
For when he ate his friends
E7 Am
He'd never heard of Duncan Hines.
[Outro]
Am C
For when he ate his friends
E7 Am
He'd never heard of Duncan Hines.
